I agree 100% with you killing aquatic life is bad for ecosystems and the animals themselves.
Saying the cows are born to die is arbitrary. There are cultures that consume dogs and cats for food, the same could be said about them.
If a serial killer was impregnating human women and stealing their babies to eat them, the same could be said about the babies the serial killer was eating. That they were just born to die.
Vegans don’t consume any land or marine animals. Veganism is a philosophy concerned with avoiding harm to animals as far as possible and practicable.
It’s not a philosophy of complete non-harm since that isn’t attainable for most people with the social obligations they have.
No, it’s literal. Humans produce and slaughter ~3.5B cows for consumption annually. If this were not the case and the numbers were natural, the planet would be consumed by cows in a short number of years. That’s if the ~55B chickens a year don’t cover every inch of the surface first. If we stopped eating cows, the heartier species would continue to exist naturally but in very low numbers in specific environments,.back to how it used to be.
That’s land numbers. Farmed, regulated, controlled, sustained, and efficient—BILLIONS. Now think of how hard humans go on marine life…
It’s a finite resource at this point, one which climate and ecosystems of the land depend on to survive. The pescatarian diet is the “I want everything to die as efficiently as possible” choice, showing how little Pescatarians actually think before getting on a soapbox. They’re your hypothetical murderer but they don’t impregnate first, and they litter an unfathomable amount, and it’s not just human babies it’s any living creature in proximity of the human baby just 'cause.
Also, you don’t need to randomly mansplain veganism :)
